Wind Desires the Clouds《風想雲》– Lan Tung (2009)

－ 2 versions: erhu, vocal, zheng, percussion  or erhu & percussion

The original version for erhu and 2-3 percussionists was written as the theme song for a short film Chinatown. The simple haunting melodic line is contrasted by the polyrhythmics in the zheng and percussion parts. The vocal version is released on Orchid Ensemble’s 2012 CD “Life Death Tears Dream”.

《風想雲》，歌唱、二胡、古箏、打擊樂(原為電影短片「In Chinatown」音樂)，收錄於蘭韻中樂團的《生死淚夢》專輯。

風想雲   雲想飛   風想雲   雲想飛
風起了   雲知道   雲倦了   風知道
你像雲   自由飛   你像風   盡情吹
只要風   不停吹   心就像   亂雲飛
你像雲   自由飛   你像風   盡情吹
飛過了   萬千水   尋不到   你的美

The wind desires the clouds; the clouds desire to fly.
When the wind starts to blow; the clouds know;
When the clouds get tired; the wind knows.
 
You are like the clouds, free to fly anywhere;
Your are like the winds, blow your heart out.
As long as the wind blows; the clouds will fly.
 
You are like the clouds, free to fly anywhere;
Your are like the winds, blow your heart out.

I have flown over thousands of rivers, to seek your beauty.
